Better than Chipotle
Good portions and comparable to Chipotle in certain ways.
Mediocre Tex Mex but it's an amazing value with a CMU meal block. Will definitely fill you up and empty your colon.
I've been to Gallo easily over a hundred times in the last five years, and I keep going back. The two things Gallo has above its competitors are its salsas and the quesadilla. The salsas are way better than those at Chipotle, and I particularly highly recommend the salsa verde for some real heat. If you're not getting the quesadilla at Gallo, you're doing it all wrong; all the good ingredients in the hot crispy tortilla is something you're not going to get elsewhere in walking distance from CMU. The quantity of food for the cost is quite satisfactory, and the staff is always friendly also.
